An exercise in futility

The Zurich based cabal of the corrupt, headed by Our Dear Leader, has released the latest batch of the Fifa/Coca-Cola World Rankings.

Ranking	Team	Pts Jun 11	+/- Ranking May 11		+/- Pts May 11
1	Spain	1871	0		14
2	Netherlands	1661	0		-41
3	Germany	1417	1		4
4	England	1146	2		-17
5	Brazil	1130	-2		-295
6	Italy	1059	3		40
7	Portugal	1046	1		-6
8	Croatia	1033	2		42
9	Mexico	1007	19		205
10	Argentina	979	-5		-288

As you can see, the azzurri are at the 6th position, up three places since last time. The thing to remember is, right now, none of these rankings mean anything. The only times it matter are during the World Cup seeding, and deciding on the seeds for the World Cup Qualifier playoffs. These rankings will again change massively once the Copa America results are taken into account.

PS: England, serial trophy winners since 1966,are at 4th. That is all I am saying.
